The present invention relates to a coating composition which has good adhesion to a substrate and provides a coating film being excellent particularly in stain removability.
There are many cases where a water-repellent stain-proofing coating film is formed on surfaces of various substrates, for example, stone, concrete, metal, plastic, wood and the like to prevent adhesion of stain and easily remove stain. Such a stain-proofing coating composition is roughly classified into (1) an inorganic coating composition mainly comprising a silicone compound (for example, JP64-45411A, etc.), (2) a curable, coating composition comprising a fluorine-containing resin and an acrylic resin (for example, JP60-21686B, JP57-23662A, JP63-264675A, JP5-25422A, etc.), (3) a coating composition prepared by mixing a stain-proofing silicon-containing low molecular weight compound to a coating film forming resin (for example, JP1-51477A, JP9-78029A, WO98/22530, JP5-339538A, JP11-29722A, JP2-75649A, JP10-88065A, etc.) and the like.
When forming the inorganic coating film of above (1) on a substrate surface, it is difficult to carry out coating uniformly continuously over the substrate surface, and a long-lasting stain proofing effect cannot be expected.
In the method of coating a water- and oil-repellent resin of above (2), strength of a coating film itself can be obtained but a stain-proofing effect is insufficient.
The coating composition of above (3) prepared by mixing a stain-proofing silicon-containing low molecular weight compound to a coating film forming resin is intended for compensating for problems of (1) and (2) above, but it is difficult to uniformly disperse the silicon-containing low molecular weight compound in the coating film forming resin and further to concentrate the silicon-containing low molecular weight compound around the coating film surface, and it is particularly difficult to maintain the silicon-containing low molecular weight compound around the surface for a long period of time. A coating composition providing a coating film which can maintain a stain-proofing effect for a long period of time has not yet been found out.
On the other hand, there have been trials to obtain a stain-proofing effect of a coating film surface by making the surface hydrophilic but not water- and oil-repellent. For example, WO97/11130 discloses a coating composition comprising a fluorine-containing resin as a coating film forming component and a tri-functional or tetra-functional fluorine-containing silicate compound (having 3 to 4 hydrolyzable groups) as a stain adherence inhibitor. However this coating composition is used for achieving a stain-proofing effect by hydrolyzing a fluorine-containing silicate concentrated around the coating film surface and making the surface hydrophilic with a hydrophilic group after hydrolyzation. A group having fluorine is a hydrolyzable group, and is released by hydrolyzation and does not exist around the coating film surface.
Further coating compositions for enhancing a property of preventing adherence of snow and ice and a property of sliding snow but not for giving a stain-proofing property have been proposed (for example, JP4-85369A, JP58-132073A, etc.). JP4-85369A discloses that a silicone- or fluorine-containing water-repellent agent having no functional group and a lubricant are mixed to a hydroxyl-containing chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer. Also JP58-132073A discloses that a silicone oil is mixed to an air drying vinyl resin or acrylic resin having no functional group. However even if a coating film is formed by using the compositions disclosed in those patent publications, since a water-repellent agent, lubricant and silicone oil in the coating film bleed or are released from the film surface, there is a problem that a property of maintaining the effects thereof is insufficient.
An object of the present invention is to provide a coating composition which can make a coating film surface water- and oil-repellent and can maintain a stain-proofing effect, particularly stain removability and a property of wiping off stain for a long period of time even in case of outdoor use.

An adding amount of such a silicate curing agent may be optionally selected depending on kind of the curing agent, and is usually from 0 to 100 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the sum of the resin (A) and the stain-proofing component (B). A preferred upper limit is 50 parts by weight and a preferred lower limit is 10 parts by weight.
With respect to a synthetic resin having hydroxyl which is used in this combination, it is preferable that a hydroxyl value thereof is not less than 10 mgKOH/g, preferably not less than 50 mgKOH/g, from the point of increasing a crosslinking density and enhancing a strength of a coating film.

In this case, an amino equivalence of the stain-proofing component is not less than 1,000.
The amino equivalence is an index of the number of animo groups per 10,000 of a number average molecular weight and is represented by (10,000 of a number average molecular weight)/(number of animo groups per 10,000 of a number average molecular weight). Therefore as the amino equivalence increases, the number of animo groups is smaller in the case of compounds having the same molecular weight.
A preferred amino equivalence is not less than 1,500, particularly not less than 3,000. An upper limit thereof is 50,000, further 10,000. If the amino equivalence is too low (if the number of animo groups is too large), there is a case where a reaction with the isocyanate compound is preceded prior to a reaction with hydroxyl of the hydroxyl-containing synthetic resin, and the isocyanate compound and the stain-proofing component form a complex to be formed into particles, thereby lowering appearance of a coating film.
However if such large particles are removed by filtrating through a mesh having a pore size of 50 μm, appearance of a coating film is not lowered.

When the substrate is the cement substrate, it is preferable that the coating composition of the present invention is applied on an under coating and intermediate coating as mentioned below.
As the under coat paint, it is particularly preferable to use multi-layer finish paints such as multi-layer finish paint of non-curable synthetic resin emulsion, multi-layer pattern finish paint of reaction-curable aqueous epoxy resin and multi-layer finish paint of reaction-curable solvent-based epoxy resin. The resin component of the non-curable synthetic resin emulsion includes, for example, acrylic resin, vinyl acetate resin and modified resins thereof. Also the curing system of the reaction-curable aqueous or solvent-based epoxy resin includes, for example, epoxy-polyamine, epoxy-polyamide, epoxy-polyamine-polyamide and the like.
The under coat paint on the cement substrate can be applied by, for example, spray coating method, roller coating method, etc. It appears that a sufficient applying amount is usually from 0.5 to 2.0 kg/m2. In general, drying is carried out usually for 1 to 3 days.
Before applying the under coat paint to the cement substrate, known primer, surface sealer or the like which has been used in general for surface preparation for building can be applied previously. In addition to the above-mentioned under coat paint, the present invention includes direct coating of a sealer of solvent-based epoxy resin or coating of the sealer and then smooth-finishing with isocyanate curing resin paint, etc.
The coating composition of the present invention can be applied to the under coating film by, for example, roller coating method, brush coating method, spray coating method, etc. An applying amount is from 0.05 to 0.5 kg/m2, preferably from 0.1 to 0.3 kg/m2. A cured coating film can be formed by drying at room temperature for at least one day.
A repair coating method comprises applying the coating composition of the present invention after necessary surface preparation of the existing top coating film on the cement substrate for exterior of buildings.
In the above method, the existing top coating is not particularly limited. The particularly preferred top coating film is one formed by using paints as used for the composition of the present invention, i.e. a non-crosslinkable solvent-based paint such as curable fluorine-containing paint, curable acrylic paint, acrylic silicon paint, carbonyl-hydrazide curable aqueous paint or vinyl acetate-modified acrylic resin paint and a non-crosslinkable aqueous paint such as acrylic resin aqueous paint.
Examples of the carbonyl-hydrazide curable aqueous paint are ones prepared by mixing a water dispersion of a carbonyl-containing copolymer with a dihydrazide crosslinking agent and an aqueous polyurethane resin having hydrazine residue (for example, JP4-171683A). Between the existing top coating and the cement substrate may have been applied a primer and surfacer or thereon may have been applied multi-layer paints.
The surface preparation to be made, if occasion demands, on the existing top coating can be carried out, for example, by applying a surface treating agent mentioned below. Examples of the preferred surface treating agent are, for instance, a cement type filler or surfacer (for example, cement/synthetic resin emulsion, etc.), reaction-curable resin permeable sealer (for example, epoxy polyamine, epoxy polyamide, etc.), and the like.
The surface preparation can be carried out by applying the surface treating agent by means of, for example, roller, brush, etc. An applying amount of the surface treating agent is, for example, from 0.3 to 2.0 kg/m2 in case of the filler, from 0.1 to 1.0 kg/m2 in case of the surfacer and from 0.01 to 0.5 kg/m2 in case of the permeable sealer.
After the application of the surface treating agent, a polyisocyanate curable solvent-based paint can be further applied by means of, for example, roller coating method, brush coating method or spray coating method. It is considered that a sufficient applying amount is from 0.05 to 0.5 kg/m2. The drying of the surface treating agent and polyisocyanate curable solvent-based paint is usually carried out for 1 to 3 days. The application and drying of the coating composition of the present invention can be carried out in the same manner as mentioned above.
Also in case of the plastic substrate, the coating composition of the present invention can be applied after the application of the under coating and intermediate coating as used in the metal substrate and cement substrate.
Among the plastic substrates, in case of a plastic film and sheet, there are applying methods, for example, gravure roll coating, doctor blade coating, roll coating, reverse roll coating, air knife coating, curtain flow coating, etc. In those applying methods, a suitable coating thickness is from 1 to 20 μm, preferably from 1 to 10 μm from the viewpoint of appearance of a coating film and coatability.
Examples of uses of articles coated with the coating composition of the present invention are, for instance, water-proof sheet for building, water-proof sheet for tunnel, polyvinyl sheet for agriculture, polyvinyl film for agriculture, covering sheet, protection sheet for building, protection sheet for train, mesh sheet, mesh screen, polycarbonate roof, acryl board wall, polycarbonate wall, guardrail, traffic signal, inner wall of tunnel, inner plate for tunnel, road sign, guidance plate, side wall of highway, sound-isolation wall for highway, road light, bridge beam, bridge girder, bridge pier, chimney, steel sheet in combination of polyvinyl chloride and polyester, various wall papers (made of polyvinyl chloride, etc.), tatami-mat, floor mat, table cloth, decorative sheet coated with melamine resin, incombustible sheet coated with melamine resin, ventilation fan, marking film, geo-membrane, advertisement board, mail box, electric-light pole, tent, car, airplane, ship, train, computer housing, sheet for touch panel, anti-reflection sheet for monitor panel and the like.

(1) A 1-liter pressure resistant reactor equipped with a stirrer was charged with 500 ml of deionized water and 0.5 g of ammonium perfluorooctanoate, followed by repeating introduction of pressurized nitrogen gas and deaeration. After removing dissolved oxygen, the pressure inside the reactor was increased at 60° C. to 0.79 MPaG with a monomer mixture of VdF/TFE/CTFE (74/14/12% by mole). Thereto were added 20 g of 1% aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate and 1.5 g of ethyl acetate to initiate polymerization. The monomer mixture of VdF/TFE/CTFE (74/14/12% by mole) was continuously introduced so that the pressure inside the polymerization vessel became constant at 0.79 MPaG, and the reaction was continued. Every 12 hours, 5 g of 1% aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate was added during the reaction. 45 Hours after initiating the polymerization, the inside of the polymerization vessel was turned to ordinary temperature and ordinary pressure and the polymerization was terminated to obtain an aqueous dispersion of fluorine-containing polymer particles (solid content: 41%). An average particle size of the particles in this aqueous dispersion measured with a laser beam scattering particle size meter (DLS-3000 available from Otsuka Denshi Kabushiki Kaisha) was 0.12 μm.

After that, thereto was added 0.21 part of 10% aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate and after polymerizing at 80° to 85° C. for four hours, the flask was cooled to terminate the reaction. Then ion-exchanged water was added and a pH value was adjusted to 8.5 with ammonium water to obtain an aqueous dispersion of fluoroolefin resin particles having hydrolyzable propyl silicate residue (seed polymer, fluorine content: 30% by mass) which had a solid content of 50%.

After repeating the pressurizing and deairing steps two times, the inside pressure was decreased to 10 mmHg to remove dissolved oxygen and 259.6 parts of chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE) was introduced. A reaction was continued at 30° C. for 12 hours to obtain a milky white aqueous dispersion of CTFE copolymer particles (hydroxyl value: 65 mgKOH/g, fluorine content: 25% by mass).
